Had the iPhone 4, loved it but go sick of AT&T. Call quality is horrible in SoCal and the plans were expensive. Sprint + 27% discount on the plan was a much greater value. Got the Evo and haven't looked back since!
Got a tip for us?

Well technically I picked the iPhone on my cell contract back in January '10. Since then, though my iPhone "jumped" (myself included) in a pool, and after about $300 spent on repair, it ain't working real good 
!!
That's why on a off weekend at my parent's, I picked up this:
My old pal, the E71. Great style, great options, and just all around great phone...
If I can set this guy up, it'll carry me over that next contract a few months from now for a new one:
The iPhone is great, but I don't feel like it is made for me. I need a keyboard.
As they say, one size doesn't fit all !!
Quick note: Kids, don't jump in a pool after extra "hot chocolate" late in the night/early in the morning, it is just not made for that !!

DroidX.
I used to wish Verizon would carry the iPhone 4. Now I no longer care- love my DroidX, wouldn't trade it for virtually anything.
Motorola i1 on Nextel (Sprint-Nextel, using the iDEN network). Yes, iDEN data is painfully slow, but it gets the job done for pulling emails, and the call coverage/quality is fantastic. Unlike the AT&T network here in Seattle, it's not overloaded, and the PTT is still untouchable by any other carrier in the US.
android for me = openJust want to know what makes iPhone 4 so different from other phones, what I mean is why do people choose other phones when they can afford iPhone 4....
unlike
,faster,less common,normal status quo far more modifiable you can put on custom roms even dev roms your self change the boot screen change the launcher ect i bet you my phone home screen looks like nobody elses in the world if i had an iphone that simply wouldn't be the case and then there extra feature ip's dont have like wifi tethering live wallpapers ,ectalso you can pick and chose hardware do you want a small screen or big ? do you want a budget payg for less than 100 or an awsome n1 desire , desire hd ect
also what network do you want ?? verizon

The iPhone lineup is a good lineup IMHO. However, and after using one for the past 10 months, I have found some weaknesses (related to my own personal usage):
- the keyboard
- the overall aspect of it in terms of solidity
- the international aspect.
- the apps (pointless for most of them)
I'm sure these can be debunked or turned down depending on one's own use.
I do not feel "different" or "better" than iPhone users, it's just that a different phone, i.e. Nokia E71 and BB 9780 fit my needs better.
Same here..I really miss my bold 9000. The iphone is a great phone but its not for me.
Right now im hopping RIM has plans on releasing a new phone on AT&T so I get rid of my iPhone.
HTC Evo. I have had it since launch and after owning an iphone 3g iphone 3gs for a year each, im so happy to have picked this phone this time. I love it so much. And it is rooted, so i have free unlimited wireless tethering off the 4G signal. Fantastic.
If I had a choice between a iPhone and a brick when someone broke in to my house, I would choose the brick. It's heavier, worth much less, and has the same chance of completing a call as a AT&T cell phone.
I've recently gone back to using one of these. It is so simple and the battery lasts for a week. I previously had a low end Sony Ericsson and the current entry level Nokia. I use an ipod touch with a 3g wifi modem for mobile internet. i have a 160GB Classic and a 16GB nano for listening to music.
I'd like an iphone, but I think they are still far too expensive.
You should go grab one of those cheap nokias that T-Mobile sells as a prepaid (if you have them), I bought one on a trip once when my bro's phone broke and the battery.. oh the battery.
It had a color screen AND a flashlight, the battery? I charged it once. And didn't charge it again.
XD
3 weeks later it finally shut off due to low battery.

I just ordered a free Nokia 3720 with a new 1-year contract. Free because i am a long time customer. (with the cheapest call+text plan ) It is my third cellphone since i started using them in 2001. My trusty one-charge-a-month Nokia 6310i died on me last night.
I want an Iphone but the monthly fee for data is just ridiculous. Since the beginning of this month, other carriers than T-mobile (Netherlands) are offering them and how strange, all data-plans are more or less priced the same. Looks like some carriers made a deal in the backroom.

Trèo 500v from May 2009, and I hate it.
I don't use the phone so much and I can't take another one right now so.

Yea no I hate the blackberry torch. It has a keyboard and a touch screen but the touch screen is not as good as the iphones. I would never be able to use it. I rather not have a touch screen then have one that is not good.
I am actually hoping that AT&T gets the bold 9780 or RIM releases new OS for bb thats similar to the QNX OS on the playbook.
